Google Books

Libraries + Publishers + Google

If you haven't used Google Books, you're missing out on a great information resource. Google Books has partnered with libraries and publishers to scan whole books from cover to cover. That doesn't mean that you can see every page (although for some books you can) but you can search every page.

Using Google Books, you can search every single word of every single page of millions of digitized books. That's power.
